My trusted "go-to" attorney for all of my business and family legal matters.

John has helped me personally and professionally with legal matters ranging from firearms issues (I am a firearms instructor) to business matters. He's always been very responsive and timely and very honest. I feel fortunate to have him working on my side representing my business and personal matte...rs. I also feel confident sending him family and friend referrals when the needs arise. I highly recommend.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
